Mick by Melissa Foster Blog Tour

Indulge your inner vixen…

Meet the Bad Boys… Four sinfully sexy, fiercely loyal, uber alpha brothers
about to fall head over heels for their leading ladies. If dirty talk, cursing,
or raw, passionate sex turns you off, the After Dark books are not for you,
because everything’s naughtier after dark.

***

Amanda Jenner is done being a boring-man magnet and has finally taken control
of her love life. As any smart paralegal would, she’s researched the hell out
of how to seduce a man. She’s waxed, primped, and ready to put her newfound
skills into action—and a masquerade bar crawl is the perfect venue for her solo
coming-out party.

Entertainment attorney Mick Bad lives by two hard and fast rules. He never
mixes business with pleasure, and he doesn’t do relationships, which makes the
anonymity of a masquerade bar crawl the perfect place for a onetime hookup.

Amanda thinks she’s hit the jackpot when she bags a tall, dark, and sinfully
delicious masked man—until she discovers the man she’s made out with is her
off-limits boss. Mick’s already crossed a line he can never uncross, and one
taste of sweet and sexy Amanda has only whet his appetite. When Mick offers to
give Amanda a lesson in seduction—no strings, no regrets, and for goodness’
sake, come Monday, no quitting—the tables turn, and Mick’s totally unprepared
for the lessons this sweet temptress provides.

Lured by the pulse of sex and anonymity, Amanda Jenner moved through the dusky bar, brushing against silk, satin, cotton, and flesh, each graze feeding the adrenaline coursing through her veins. Blue lights misted over sweaty strangers lost in the seductive bump and grind of foreplay and hoping for a night of erotic pleasure. If Amanda tried hard enough, she could smell tomorrow’s scent du jour—regret. Tonight she had no room for the confidence-crushing worry of what tomorrow would bring. She scanned the crowd, as she had in the previous three bars, immediately dismissing anyone who wasn’t in costume. Her world was full of boring men who excelled at wining, dining, and boring her to sleep. Ten years of romance novels and movies had led her astray, sending her on a search for the elusive needle in a haystack. She’d led herself astray, always the careful thinker, careful dresser. Or as her younger sister, Ally, would say, Careful kisser, careful lover. Ally, however, had taken charge of her sex life—and she’d found the perfect man.

Now it’s my turn.

Wow, what can I say about Mick Bad? He is BAD, but in a good way. He is sexy and all alpha male and finds out that he is possessive when he needs to be. He is a powerful attorney who knows what he wants, but he can't have the one thing he wants because he wants Amanda, but he knows where that will lead. After he has seen love fall apart with his parents, he knows the fairy tale isn't real.

Amanda has worked as a paralegal for Mick for the last three years and has lusted after him, but she knows that there will never be anything between them. He doesn't even pay attention to any of the women who come into the office and throw themselves at him, so what chance would she have. So she comes up with a plan to find her inner sex kitten and learn how to seduce a man. One night during a masked bar crawl, she notices a man that is powerful, strong, and draws attention, and Amanda is overwhelmed by his stare. Can she do the one-night stand thing?

Will Amanda be able to seduce the stranger in the bar? Will Mick finally realize how he feels about Amanda? Can they make things work before anyone gets hurt?

I have found that anytime a Melissa Foster book comes across my review list, I have to have it. I am never disappointed and this book is worth it. I was hoping things work out for Amanda through the whole book, and lusting after Mick myself. His name says it all, I mean what more do you need to read this book than Mick Bad. So I recommend you read this book and also read the Wild brothers series, they are hot too. I want more of the Bad brothers NOW!

Amanda Jenner’s sister has finally talked her into trying out being a seductress instead of always being so straight-laced. Amanda has been reading a book on how to seduce a man and is finally ready to give it a try, so she heads to a masquerade bar crawl. Mick Bad, Amanda’s boss and a no nonsense attorney, doesn’t do relationships. He’s looking for a quick hookup at the masquerade ball but winds up with a bit more than he bargained for. When Amanda see the super sexy masked man, the attraction is immediate and they quickly head towards the bathrooms, but when Mick realizes who she really is he puts a stop to it before things go too far. Instead he invites Amanda out the next night and winds up offering to train her in the art of seduction, the only problem; will he be able to let her go once the training ends?

I loved Amanda and Mick both, they’re perfect together! I also like that this is the first book in this series, but we got a few cross-over characters from other series by this author. This has a strong plotline, good supporting characters, and tons of steam. As always, Melissa Foster has done a great job and I look forward to her next book!

I've been waiting for this book ever since we met Mick and Amanda in the Wild Boys series.

Amanda is trying her hand at being a seductress because she is fed up of all the boring guys she attracts. So armed with her 'How to' book, she heads to a masked party where she meets a masked stranger.

Looking for a quick hookup for the night, Mick heads to the masked party and sets his sights on a pretty blonde. He quickly discovers that it's his work colleague who he has been lusting after for years.

I loved these guys together, Amanda is quite innocent, which I just found cute. They had a great chemistry between them as well. I mean the book was seriously hot.

I really enjoyed that we still got to see all the characters from the Wild Boys series as well.

Mick is a great start to the series and I can't wait for the next book.

Kris – ☆☆☆☆Bad Boys After Dark: Mick, is my first book by Melissa Foster. Boy can she write a smoking hot love scene! This book is laden with steamy encounters and a very dirty talking, hot alpha male. Mick and Amanda meet during a masquerade pub crawl. Amanda is trying on a new to her, sexy persona. She's tired of the boring lawyers and businessmen she seems to attract. Looking for something sexier & edgier, she eyes the man across the room and holds his stare. Little does she know, it's her boss! The one she's been hot for going on 3 long years!!! Mick, realizing it's Amanda he's seducing much too late. They're already in the men's room steaming up the mirrors! But, Mick finds himself more than intrigued with the unbuttoned up version of his normally very buttoned up paralegal. Coming clean with Amanda the next day on his identity, they embark on a weekend tryst to help bring Amanda into her new seductive self. They both end up falling hard while trying hard to hold back. Mick steals the show in this book, he's the ultimate pillow talker and had me fanning myself often. Holy Hotness, do I love a dirty talker! It's a very "helpless romantic" type novel that is sweet yet sexy. Fun and easy, it's an entertaining read! Mick has three brothers and I’m looking forward to getting to know them better in the upcoming Bad Boys books!

It's been a while since I read the first book in this series, but I remembered loving it so I was excited to pick up this book. I have to say it reminded me of the couple in the first book, so I remembered why I loved the story, and then I fell in love with our new couple, too.

This was such a fun story with lots of emotional highs and lows for the characters, and nail biting for me because I just didn't know how or if things were going to work out.

I loved watching Amanda try to be sexy and fumbling around as she did it, but it being her natural personality and touches that drove Mick wild.

Such a good story with what I'd say was low angst and medium heat, but some super sexy scenes as well.

I can't wait to find out who we are going to watch fall in love next because I love the way Melissa Foster writes her men and romance!
